To activate the wiper maintenance mode on Volkswagen vehicles, first ensure the vehicle is stationary, the engine hood is closed, and the vehicle is turned off. Turn on the vehicle's ignition switch. Quickly turn off the ignition switch or remove the key. The wipers will then enter the maintenance mode, allowing you to manually lift the wiper arms. Function of Wipers: Wipers, also known as windshield wipers, are devices used to remove rain and dust from the vehicle's windshield, improving driver visibility and enhancing driving safety. Due to legal requirements, almost all vehicles worldwide are equipped with wipers. Rear windows of hatchbacks and SUVs also feature wipers. Besides cars, other transportation vehicles like trains and trams are equipped with wipers. Some engineering machinery, such as cranes, also have wipers installed. How Wipers Work: The working principle of car wipers involves the left and right wiper blades being pressed against the outer surface of the windshield by the wiper arms. The motor drives the reduction mechanism to rotate, and through the drive rod system's reciprocating motion, it moves the wiper arms and blades left and right to clean the windshield.

Can a five-seater car with six people including a child be driven on the road?

A child also counts as one person. A five-seater car can only accommodate five people, and driving with six people is not allowed, otherwise fines and demerit points will be imposed. For a private car approved for five people, having an extra child constitutes overloading, resulting in a 6-point penalty. Traffic regulations clearly state that the passenger capacity of a private car is determined by the number of people specified on the vehicle registration certificate. The traffic regulations regarding overloading do not specify the height, weight, or age of passengers but only the "number." Therefore, in a car approved for five people, having an extra child (even an infant held by parents) is considered overloading.

Does Adding a Spoiler Require Registration?

Adding a spoiler to a car is considered an exterior modification and requires registration. The regulations and procedures for vehicle modification are as follows: Modification Regulations: The new "Road Traffic Safety Law" clearly stipulates that no unit or individual may assemble a motor vehicle or alter the registered structure, construction, or characteristics of a motor vehicle without authorization. The structure of a vehicle includes the body color, length, width, height (four mandatory standards), and relevant technical parameters of the engine. Modification Steps: Before modifying a licensed vehicle, the owner must submit a registration application to the vehicle management office. The modification can only proceed after the technical report is reviewed and approved by the vehicle management office. After the modification is completed, the owner must go through the modification change procedure at the vehicle management office. The legality of the modification depends on whether the vehicle matches the photo on the vehicle registration certificate and the factory technical parameters. If it does not match, the vehicle will not pass the annual inspection.

What Causes a Rich Fuel System?

Reasons for a rich fuel system: 1. Slight leakage in the fuel injector leads to a high fuel-air mixture ratio in the engine. This can be caused by minor injector leakage, failure of the water temperature sensor, or potential faults in the air flow meter and oxygen sensor. 2. Insufficient engine cylinder pressure results in a low compression ratio. This can be detected by listening to the engine's performance or measuring cylinder pressure. Low cylinder pressure is usually due to mechanical issues such as problems with the pistons, rings, cylinders, or valves. 3. Spark plugs with carbon deposits cause weak high-voltage sparks. This is due to spark plugs having carbon buildup, small gaps, poor performance, or issues like leakage and misfiring.

Generally, the mildew process occurs during the cooling cycle, but the smell can be more severe during heating. Solutions: After removing the air conditioning filter, gently brush the internal fins with a soft brush and a detergent to remove surface mold.
